North Carolina Goes to Obama

If you listen carefully, you'll hear Jesse Helms' head exploding in hell.

And so, three states of the old confederacy have gone for Barack Obama. Anyone with a basic knowledge of American history (that leaves you out, Gov. Palin) will realize what a huge deal that is.

Here is the close-to-final map:


Obama/Biden: 364 electoral votes
McCain/Palin: 173 electoral votes

One vote in Nebraska, where they divide their electoral votes up by congressional district, is still outstanding.

All in all, a very impressive and mighty comfortable win by Barack Obama and Joe Biden.
